    Takedown model Mercurials have always been popular, and for good reason! For what they cost, they tend to be some of the best budget friendly "speed" boots out there, and this year is no different.
    In today's video we take a closer look at the new Nike Zoom Mercurial Vapor 16 Pro, the $160 first takedown model option, sitting just below the $260 Elites. With that said, despite the $100 price difference between the two, the performance and quality differences are quite small! We discuss the tech of the Vapor 16 Pro, how they differ from the top-end Elite model and ultimately whether or not you should be considering spending less on a pair of Mercurials to have the better overall experience!

      Given that loss of grip has not been an issue on the GX or Luna series, I wouldn't expect that to be the case. It should stay very consistent over the lifespan of the boots.
